Exciting News

Remember back when I worked at a camp over the summer a couple of times? I will be returning to the Santa Cruz Mountains yet again for the summer! The last couple of times I worked at Mission Springs up at Frontier Ranch I was a camp counselor. This summer I will not be returning as a camp counselor, but as a... (insert drum roll here)... RED HAT! Okay so I'll beat you to the punch line before you ask what that even is... and yes I will be wearing a "red" hat :)

Red Hats also known as Challenge Course Team are in charge of but not limited to... Zip Line, Rock Wall, High Ropes Course, and Flying Squirrel... Pretty much if it has a rope, harness, helmet, and carabiners I will be in charge of it! I'll be one of six red hats and I am support staff.

I'll touch on what support staff means. I will not be sleeping in a cabin, but instead in "the lodge" where ALL support staff lives for the summer. I DO get to interact with the campers everyday just not like being a counselor does.

I officially start on June 5th for two weeks of training the first day of camp is June 19th which also happens to be the day after my brother's wedding... Now that you have connected the dots and are probably thinking "Girl you be Krazy!" (I really must be crazy if I spell crazy with a K...) Two siblings are getting married not even a full month apart and my parents will need my help, BUT they understand my reasons for getting out of town and just coming home for the weddings. I already have days off for said weddings, AND this isn't even about me! I get to spend a summer honoring my Lord Almighty :) and camp will conclude on August 13th.

Sure my summer is going to be boring extremely exciting and busy, I do think that God has placed this in my narrow rocky path for a reason. And I'm excited for you all to live vicariously through me at camp!


Two months and counting :)



Did you go to camp? What kind of camp was it? How many years did you attend? If you didn't go to camp did you wish you could? and Will you send your kids to camp?
